On RHEL8, only installing with a venv is supported, as there's
no Sphinx package using Python 3.7 or upper.

This program is somewhat complex. Add some docstring documentation,
explaining what each function and class is supposed to do.
Most of the focus here were to describe the ancillary functions used
to detect dependency needs.
The main SphinxDependencyChecker still requires a lot of care,
and probably need to be reorganized to clearly split the 4 types
of output it produces:
- Need to upgrade Python binary;
- System install needs;
- Virtual env install needs;
- Python install needs via system packages, to run Sphinx
natively.
Yet, for now, I'm happy of having it a lot better documented
than its Perl version.

While here, rename a parameter to have its usage better
documented.

The code at get_system_release() is actually a helper function,
independent from the actual Sphinx verification checker. Move
it to MissingCheckers class, where other checkers are present.
With that, the entire distro-specific handler logic, with

Currently, if Python < 3.7, package install will fail. That happens
with OpenSuse Leap and RHEL-based ver 8 distros.
OpenSuse allows installing Sphinx with Python 3.11, but RHEL-based

It took me a lot of time, but I guess understand now what it
takes to install a package on Gentoo.
Handling dependencies is a nightmare, as Gentoo refuses to emerge
some packages if there's no package.use file describing them.
To make it worse, compilation flags shall also be present there
for some packages. If USE is not perfect, error/warning messages
like those are shown:
gnome-base/librsvg dev-texlive/texlive-xetex media-fonts/dejavu dev-python/pyyaml
...
!!! The following binary packages have been ignored due to non matching USE:
=media-gfx/graphviz-12.2.1-r1 X pdf -python_single_target_python3_13 qt6 svg
=media-gfx/graphviz-12.2.1-r1 X pdf python_single_target_python3_12 -python_single_target_python3_13 qt6 svg
=media-gfx/graphviz-12.2.1-r1 X pdf qt6 svg
=media-gfx/graphviz-12.2.1-r1 X pdf -python_single_target_python3_10 qt6 svg
=media-gfx/graphviz-12.2.1-r1 X pdf -python_single_target_python3_10 python_single_target_python3_12 -python_single_target_python3_13 qt6 svg
=media-fonts/noto-cjk-20190416 X
=app-text/texlive-core-2024-r1 X cjk -xetex
=app-text/texlive-core-2024-r1 X -xetex
=app-text/texlive-core-2024-r1 -xetex
=dev-libs/zziplib-0.13.79-r1 sdl
If emerge is allowed, it will simply ignore the above packages,
creating an incomplete installation, which will later fail when
one tries to build docs with images or build PDFs.
After the fix, command line commands to produce the needed USE
chain will be emitted, if they don't exist yet.
sudo su -c 'echo "media-gfx/graphviz" > /etc/portage/package.use/graphviz'
sudo su -c 'echo "media-gfx/imagemagick" > /etc/portage/package.use/imagemagick'
sudo su -c 'echo "media-libs/harfbuzz icu" > /etc/portage/package.use/media-libs'
sudo su -c 'echo "media-fonts/noto-cjk" > /etc/portage/package.use/media-fonts'
sudo su -c 'echo "app-text/texlive-core xetex" > /etc/portage/package.use/texlive'
sudo su -c 'echo "dev-libs/zziplib sdl" > /etc/portage/package.use/zziblib'
The new logic tries to be smart enough to detect for missing files
and missing arguments. Yet, as Gentoo seems to require users to
manage those package.use files by hand, the logic isn't perfect:
users may still need to verify for conflicts on different use
files.

I forgot one f-string marker, with turned to be affecting 3
lines, because of cut-and-paste ;-)
Use the proper f-string marker to print Sphinx version at
the hint lines. Yet, we don't want to print as a tuple, so
call ver_str() for it.
Ideally, we would be placing it directly at the f-string, but
Python 3.6 f-string support was pretty much limited. Only
3.12 (PEP 701) makes it similar to Perl, allowing expressions
inside it. It sounds that function call itself was introduced
on 3.7.
As we explicitly want this one to run on 3.6, as latest Leap
comes with it, we can't use function calls on f-string.

On openSUSE Leap 15.6, which is the current LTS version, has two
Sphinx packages. The normal one requires Python 3.6, which we
don't support anymore. However, it also has Python 3.11 with a
newer Sphinx version (7.2.6).
Suggest the newer version:
Detected OS: openSUSE Leap 15.6.
ERROR: at least python 3.7 is required to build the kernel docs
Warning: python version is not supported.
Warning: better to also install "convert".
Warning: better to also install "dot".
ERROR: please install "yaml", otherwise, build won't work.
You should run:
sudo zypper install --no-recommends ImageMagick graphviz python311-pyyaml
Sphinx needs to be installed either:
1) via pip/pypi with:
Currently not possible.
Please upgrade Python to a newer version and run this script again
2) As a package with:
sudo zypper install --no-recommends python311-Sphinx
Please note that Sphinx >= 3.0 will currently produce false-positive
warning when the same name is used for more than one type (functions,
structs, enums,...). This is known Sphinx bug. For more details, see:

While we do need at least 3.6 for kernel-doc to work, and at least
3.7 for it to output functions and structs with parameters at the
right order, let the python binary be compatible with legacy
versions.
The rationale is that the Kernel build nowadays calls kernel-doc
with -none on some places. Better not to bail out when older
versions are found.
With that, potentially this will run with python 2.7 and 3.2+,
according with vermin:
$ vermin --no-tips -v ./scripts/kernel-doc
Detecting python files..
Analyzing using 24 processes..
2.7, 3.2 /new_devel/v4l/docs/scripts/kernel-doc
Minimum required versions: 2.7, 3.2
3.2 minimal requirement is due to argparse.
The minimal version I could check was version 3.4
(using anaconda). Anaconda doesn't support 3.2 or 3.3
anymore, and 3.2 doesn't even compile (I tested compiling
Python 3.2 on Fedora 42 and on Fedora 32 - no show).
With 3.4, the script didn't crash and emitted the right warning:
$ conda create -n py34 python=3.4
$ conda activate py34
python --version
Python 3.4.5
$ python ./scripts/kernel-doc --none include/media
Error: Python 3.6 or later is required by kernel-doc
$ conda deactivate
$ python --version
Python 3.13.5
$ python ./scripts/kernel-doc --none include/media
(no warnings and script ran properly)
Supporting 2.7 is out of scope, as it is EOL for 5 years, and
changing shebang to point to "python" instead of "python3"
would have a wider impact.
I did some extra checks about the differences from 3.2 and
3.4, and didn't find anything that would cause troubles:
grep -rE "yield from|asyncio|pathlib|async|await|enum" scripts/kernel-doc
Also, it doesn't use "@" operator. So, I'm confident that it
should run (producing the exit warning) since Python 3.2.

In my ongoing effort to truly understand our new kernel-doc, I continue to
make changes to improve the code, and to try to make the understanding task
easier for the next person. These patches focus on dump_struct() in
particular, which starts out at nearly 300 lines long - to much to fit into
my little brain anyway. Hopefully the result is easier to manage.
There are no changes in the rendered docs.

The last thing done in dump_struct() is to format the structure for
printing. That, too, is a separate activity; split it out into its own
function.
dump_struct() now fits in a single, full-hight editor screen.

Get rid of some redundant checks, and generally tighten up the code; no
logical change.

Add comments to rewrite_struct_members() describing what it is actually
doing, and reformat/comment the main struct_members regex so that it is
(more) comprehensible to humans.

Adopt a more Pythonic form for the main loop of this function, getting rid
of the "while True:" construction and making the actual loop invariant
explicit.

The massive loop that massages struct members shares no data with the rest
of dump_struct(); split it out into its own function. Code movement only,
no other changes.

dump_struct is one of the longest functions in the kdoc_parser class,
making it hard to read and reason about. Move the definition of the prefix
transformations out of the function, join them with the definition of
"attribute" (which was defined at the top of the file but only used here),
and reformat the code slightly for shorter line widths.
Just code movement in the end.

A lot of the regular expressions in this file have extraneous backslashes
that may have been needed in Perl, but aren't helpful here. Take them out
to reduce slightly the visual noise.
Escaping of (){}[] has been left in place, even when unnecessary, for
visual clarity.

The complex struct_members regex was defined far from its use; bring the
two together. Remove some extraneous backslashes while making the move.
